A scene from All About Eve 1950
De Witt

We're a breed apart from the rest of humanity, we theater folk. We are the original displaced personalities.

Miss Casswell

[interrupting]

Oh, waiter!

De Witt

That isn't a waiter, my dear. That's a butler.

Miss Casswell

Well, I can't yell, 'Oh, butler!' can I? Maybe somebody's name is Butler.

De Witt

You have a point. An idiotic one, but a point.

Miss Casswell

I don't want to make trouble. All I want is a drink.

Max

Leave it to me. I'll get you one.

Miss Caswell

[smiling]

Thank you, Mr. Fabian.

De Witt

Well done. I can see your career rising in the east like the sun.
